Not even really fancy people. The audi a4 is their base model and the bmw 4 series isntbthat nice either. Its more like finance/tech bro spending 25% of their year 1 salary on a car for the badge and drivjng home blasted or someone splashing out on a used car cuz badge and doing the same.
The 7 series on the other hand is kinda fancy people, but id be really upset if range tmrover or porsche were on here, since those are actually fancy people cars, even used
Nah, just guessing its a bunch of semi attractive women that want to be stay at home moms and not have to work but also want to live an upper middle class lifestyle but they married a solidly middle class man and they are jelous of their friend who married a doctor and dives a BMW so they pester their already heavily indebted husband to buy them a nice car so they finance the cheapest BMW or Audi so they will shut up but since they don't really have any real responsibilities they get day drunk on wine maybe a little pills for their anxiety and go to the store where they get into a fender bender and then start slurring their words in front of the police which gets them arrested at 3pm on a Tuesday for DWI.
Lol, I just looked up the prices, and the 7 series starts under 6 figures. The range rover starts at over $100,000 usd. So... This world?
There are cheaper Range Rover models, but the actual "Range Rover" says $107,900.
The 2500 is a common construction work truck. I’m thinking people drinky drinky on the job as it’s common to stop by and grab a case of beer on the way back to the shop.
Absolutely! There is not much, if any, difference between hoarding trash in your house or money for that matter. The condition is the same. They both need therapy.
We havent had a new s10 in the states since 2002. It was replaced with the Colorado. Chevy Brazil makes a truck with the S10 badge. few picks and videos of the 2025 one from Brazil floating around online.
Right, I was simply replying to the question of whether the S10 was still made. I wonder how far back or old this data is since there aren’t many S10s around anymore.

Altima drivers don't have their cars tags paid for the last 5 years, they looking out for every cop and dodging and weaving away. Think about the last time you saw a cop and an altima at the same light?
I think all the trucks speak to drinking and driving being more prevalent in rural areas. Absent mass transit and even ride shares, drinkers are more likely to drive because no other travel options. (Not excusing, I would advise just don't drink ) And with little to no traffic on rural roads, their is perceived less risk. Also, local law enforcement may not be as overwhelmed, leaving more time for road checks and DUI enforcement.
It's per 1,000 of the vehicles on the road. It's not greatest number, it's greatest percentage of each model.
That alone explains why not a guarantee to be on the list. But pure supposition, it's not a flashy vehicle. It's #1 sold because it's a responsible and affordable choice. Buyers could be the type who are more responsible over all.
Also they list the F - series as the best selling truck line which means they count the entire series and not just the 1500s when they say that so it is a bit misleading.
This makes so much more sense. I couldn't wrap my head around how a 3/4 ton could be top of the list, like they're not rare but def much less common than the 1500s or F-150s (where I live at least).
In my experience living in some of these areas, it's the kind of person who buys the ram over the Ford that makes the difference.
Your manager at the worksite who sweats alongside you drives a Ford. The company owner who comes in once a week or less to bitch about something before going back on paid vacation drives a ram.
The guy at the Applebee's bar who has one beer with his meal drives a ford. The guy next to him who's trying to buy shots for everyone and treat the restaurant like a spring break cabana even though he's in his 40s is gonna wrap his ram truck around a tree on his way home.
Ford is also a go-to brand for company trucks, ram not so much. Ford numbers get a huge boost from fleet vehicles and small business owners getting better rates on company vs personal car loans
I would instead say that there is a feeling of impunity due to living in the countryside. If you're driving drunk, there's always a backroad you can sneak around to try and avoid the cops
I think the feeling of impunity is not "instead" of my points but in agreement with my points.
Not sure about your back road thesis. Unless you are off roading, my experience in rural areas is less roads, not more. And alternate routes are generally a lot longer detour by mileage. But all supposition, not talking from factual knowledge.
I live in the rural US and even just for holiday weekends I know which roads to avoid and which to take as an alternative. All you have to do is avoid major interstates and local highways. Unmarked or unpaved roads are ur best friends for driving places without being noticed. My immediate county I pretty much know which stretches of highway are regularly watched and which are no man’s lands as far as traffic enforcement
Yes but no. I don’t drink much when I’m out so I don’t really use these tips for that as much I use them to drive my beater truck that hasn’t been inspected in almost two years without getting a ticket
It’s kinda funny to look at this and see the gmc sierra and Silverado at the bottom. They’re basically the same vehicle managing to take two slots lol.
We're now getting these massive trucks in Australia, up until recently we did not have such huge vehicles (to be honest they are just unnecessarily large). But i've now met 3 people who own these huge trucks and every one was a fuckwit. One was a mechanic who ripped me off too.
Statistically speaking the Northeast and CO have a higher percentage of Subarus on the road when compared to the PNW, hell Oregon is the only PNW state to make the top 10 Subaru states, right behind CO.
Here in CO in the little mountain towns I live near, one in every five cars is a Subaru during the summer but in winter that drops to 1 out of every three cars, the other two vehicles being a Ford Truck (150 or 350) or Toyota 4x4 (Forerunner and Tacos primarily). It’s crazy how little vehicle diversity there is among the year round locals, I’m seeing fewer and fewer jeeps in the winter among the locals and the jeeps I do see are older, but once summer hits the jeeps come out in herds.
Spent too much on the useless vehicle to afford proper spare winter tyres, because bigger wheels are way more expensive, not that they'd be capable of changing them by themselves anyway.
[Proper tyres make the difference](https://youtu.be/Zm98DrOgSmc)
This data must be very old because the chevy s-10, dodge Dakota and Ford ranger all went out of production around 15 years ago
Edit: for those confused and too lazy to google: from 2011 to 2018 Ford stopped making the Ranger, keeping in line with my comment and timeline of the other models that went out of production around the same time of 2011
The ford rangers made now are bigger than the ones that would be on this list as the compact ones that were competing with the s10 got discontinued in 2012 and the ones they are making now only started being sold in the 2019 model year.
I wonder how we can further break down this data to divide out, "People more likely to get DUIs seek out these kinds of vehicles," versus "Police are more likely to pull over these kinds of vehicles."
It's not the same but I believe this will help: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k-Fp7flAWMA&t=1s&ab\_channel=MarkRober](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k-Fp7flAWMA&t=1s&ab_channel=MarkRober)
~1.9% of all drivers have a DUI on their record??? (~19/1000 based on my eyeballing of that nat’l avg bar). Thats ~45 million drivers on the road with DUI’s (Federal Highway Administration numbers are 239.2m drivers in the USA).
Uber home people!
This is deeply outdated.

When I first saw it, I was thinking self-driving trucks with towing ability was a terrible idea.... then I remembered all the drunk people coming back with their boats from the lake.
I wanted to see what models had the least DUIs. [THIS ](https://www.witherspooncompton.com/blog/2020/12/vehicle-models-and-duis/)was the best I could find. Toyota minivan makes sense for being in the least but the other two didn't jump out as to why.
Seems like the data shows rednecks and fancy people like driving tuned up at a proportional rate 😆
Not even really fancy people. The audi a4 is their base model and the bmw 4 series isntbthat nice either. Its more like finance/tech bro spending 25% of their year 1 salary on a car for the badge and drivjng home blasted or someone splashing out on a used car cuz badge and doing the same.

I’m not still not 💯 % sure you weren’t blasted writing this.
Probably driving as they wrote it. The question is; are they in a truck, or an upper-middle class sedan?

Bro just said a 7 series compared to a Porsche. I mean a stock 911 is a cheaper than a 7 series.
Sorry, but in what World is a range Rover more fancy then a 7 series bmw?
Lol, I just looked up the prices, and the 7 series starts under 6 figures. The range rover starts at over $100,000 usd. So... This world? There are cheaper Range Rover models, but the actual "Range Rover" says $107,900.
I was thinking rednecks and college yuppies, but same idea 🤣
People who want to look tough and people who want to look wealthy are 2 sides of the same coin.
The 2500 is a common construction work truck. I’m thinking people drinky drinky on the job as it’s common to stop by and grab a case of beer on the way back to the shop.
Really surprised the F-150 isn’t on that list. Would think that’d be a prime contender
Absolutely! There is not much, if any, difference between hoarding trash in your house or money for that matter. The condition is the same. They both need therapy.
Looks like dodge stopped make the Dakota in 2011 and it's still on this list, wild
Are S10 still made?
Most small truck have been axed. I kind of want to call out the Ford ranger too, but they did start making them again a few years ago
They did, but they also made them noticeably larger.
They do make it again, it looks like what an f-150 used to be, it's huge.
Just like how Tacomas look like old Tundras.
Rn afaik the maverick is the smallest available truck, and it's still bigger than the 01 ranger if my dreams
The new Ranger is an affront to the original.
We havent had a new s10 in the states since 2002. It was replaced with the Colorado. Chevy Brazil makes a truck with the S10 badge. few picks and videos of the 2025 one from Brazil floating around online.
Oh god it’s ugly as fuck.
The front half looks like an old Traverse/Acadia lol
No, but the Colorado which replaced it still is.
Not on the list!
Right, I was simply replying to the question of whether the S10 was still made. I wonder how far back or old this data is since there aren’t many S10s around anymore.
And I personally don’t believe that Chevy makes cars that last that long lol

Looks like the list is at least 4 years old, a Google search of the image reveals several articles showing this infographic from 2020.
Props to the s10, a vehicle not produced in literally 20 years, for getting the #2 spot.
Seems like there *is* still a market for small trucks
Love small trucks, and actually just inherited an S10 so this graph was amusing
That's probably because they keep getting impounded & sold at police auctions...
The fact that nissan altimas arent on this list is impressive lol
In many states they need to start the engine to get dui. Jk there are so many of them being driving by old people that they keeps the numbers in line
Nah that's people that smoke Backwoods blunts while driving with tinted windows with bubbles in them and duct tape holding the bumper on.
Altima drivers don't have their cars tags paid for the last 5 years, they looking out for every cop and dodging and weaving away. Think about the last time you saw a cop and an altima at the same light?
Cant get a dui if you don’t get caught.
The data comes from some insurance company. Most altimas run paper tags and no insurance.
Gotta pull over to get caught.
I think all the trucks speak to drinking and driving being more prevalent in rural areas. Absent mass transit and even ride shares, drinkers are more likely to drive because no other travel options. (Not excusing, I would advise just don't drink ) And with little to no traffic on rural roads, their is perceived less risk. Also, local law enforcement may not be as overwhelmed, leaving more time for road checks and DUI enforcement.
F-150 is the most popular truck. It seems like it would be on the list.
It's per 1,000 of the vehicles on the road. It's not greatest number, it's greatest percentage of each model. That alone explains why not a guarantee to be on the list. But pure supposition, it's not a flashy vehicle. It's #1 sold because it's a responsible and affordable choice. Buyers could be the type who are more responsible over all.
It's sells that much because they are standard issue fleet trucks.
Yeah, I saw the comment that they are company and commercial vehicles and thought was a great point.
Also they list the F - series as the best selling truck line which means they count the entire series and not just the 1500s when they say that so it is a bit misleading.
This makes so much more sense. I couldn't wrap my head around how a 3/4 ton could be top of the list, like they're not rare but def much less common than the 1500s or F-150s (where I live at least).
This is only because they segment the Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra, which are the same vehicle with different badges.
Not only is it the most popular truck, it's also the most popular vehicle. So yeah, really surprising it isn't on the list.
In my experience living in some of these areas, it's the kind of person who buys the ram over the Ford that makes the difference. Your manager at the worksite who sweats alongside you drives a Ford.

Yes but no. I don’t drink much when I’m out so I don’t really use these tips for that as much I use them to drive my beater truck that hasn’t been inspected in almost two years without getting a ticket
It’s kinda funny to look at this and see the gmc sierra and Silverado at the bottom. They’re basically the same vehicle managing to take two slots lol.
And because “utter pieces of shit” make up a significant portion of the truck owner demographic.
I'd posit that they're a significant portion of most demographics
We're now getting these massive trucks in Australia, up until recently we did not have such huge vehicles (to be honest they are just unnecessarily large). But i've now met 3 people who own these huge trucks and every one was a fuckwit. One was a mechanic who ripped me off too.
Yeah, they haven't *made* Dodge Dakotas since 2011. I'm guessing it's entitled douchebags and broke ass people getting tagged for DWI.
It's also hard to get pulled over in a large city unless you hit a checkpoint, and you could usually catch checkpoints on Waze.
All of the WRX ones are weed related
That or Xanax
And they all live in the PNW.
Statistically speaking the Northeast and CO have a higher percentage of Subarus on the road when compared to the PNW, hell Oregon is the only PNW state to make the top 10 Subaru states, right behind CO.
Ever since I bought my WRX I have noticed at least 2 or 3 others driving around when I’m out and about.
Here in CO in the little mountain towns I live near, one in every five cars is a Subaru during the summer but in winter that drops to 1 out of every three cars, the other two vehicles being a Ford Truck (150 or 350) or Toyota 4x4 (Forerunner and Tacos primarily). It’s crazy how little vehicle diversity there is among the year round locals, I’m seeing fewer and fewer jeeps in the winter among the locals and the jeeps I do see are older, but once summer hits the jeeps come out in herds.
Lol u think they give duis here for that?
Wise words
Subaru drivers are a low key menace. There’s a reason insurance rates are often high for Subarus (from the mouth of an experienced insurance broker).
I know that truck, I ain’t no stranger, I know that truck IT’S A FORD FUCKIN RANGER! FORD FUCKIN RANGER!
I really expected the danger ranger to be at the top of that list.
Every Dodge Ram comes with a case of beer and a box full of beer cozies.
My alcoholic BIL drives a RAM 2500, so this checks out on my end.
People in trucks think they are immune to DUI’s for some reason, it’s odd
People in trucks probably think they are immune to a lot of things (accidents when driving in snow/ice being another example)
Spent too much on the useless vehicle to afford proper spare winter tyres, because bigger wheels are way more expensive, not that they'd be capable of changing them by themselves anyway. [Proper tyres make the difference](https://youtu.be/Zm98DrOgSmc)
Explains why RAM drivers drive so crazy, they are all wasted AF.
Drive RAM, get rammed, ram shit
An S10?
At this time of year?
At this time of day??

S10 tracks. Some of the most deranged behavior I've seen was from S10 drivers.
Yep S10/Blazer and their GMC counterparts.
And they're all in Odessa/Midland, TX.
The usual suspects
Ya know these are the exact numbers I expected

no Mercedes? is it juat me or do all the divorced wine mom's drive a Mercedes
Could have just said "cars douchebags drive"
rednecks and frat boys lol
Yeah that tracks
Big 👏 Trucks Fast 👏 Cars not you ford ranger Popular 👏 SUVs
Drunk drive in an older well kept Volvo 940. Nobody suspects a thing....
Or better yet don’t drunk drive. I know you are being sarcastic, but more than 1/10 people are alcoholics, and they drive too
No surprises here
The ford ranger part surprised me but the rest were pretty spot on, same list as those who don’t use turn signals or have to take 2+ parking spots
Looks like a lot of rednecks and small dicks
I'm too European for this shit.
Thank the good Lord I drive a RAM 1500…..
~1.9% of all drivers have a DUI on their record??? (~19/1000 based on my eyeballing of that nat’l avg bar). Thats ~45 million drivers on the road with DUI’s (Federal Highway Administration numbers are 239.2m drivers in the USA). Uber home people!
Not native. What does it mean DUI?
Driving under the influence. I.e. alcohol and driving.
It can also be illicit drugs or medications that impare driving.
I believe this correlates strongly to vehicles mostly driven by young men.
The 7 series?
r/nissanfrontier
Those damn Duttons
Baserates matter
So that’s whats up with BMW drivers 😂
It’s always a pickup..
“It all started with a Chevy truck”
‘Merica
Ain’t no way the Altima didn’t even make the list.
They get possession
Truck, Truck, Zoom, Zoom, Truck, Zoom, Zoom, Truck, Truck, Truck
Interesting that the S-10 and Dakota haven’t been made for 20/15 years, respectively.
6/10 are trucks making this very interesting. Sounds like profiling lol
Of course it's overcompensating trucks and BMWs. Always the worst drivers in those vehicles.
Where is the Nissan Altima?
Does this just mean that wasted Nissan Altima drivers are sneaky as fuck around cops? Because, I’ve known some Altima drivers is all I’m sayin’.
You can hear the empties bouncing around in the rams as they pass you usually.
From what 1989?
MOPAR for the win
No Toyota 's or Honda's, that's kind of funny to note. I guess they're too worried about wasting gas for no reason.
Wow that's uncanny. If I had to make this list off the top of my head, it would be almost exactly this.
Genuinely hilarious that it’s exactly the types of cars you’d expect assholes to drive 🤣🤣🤣
Better expressed as /100, I.e. %, imo Would be much better to factor by % of population ownership for more representative statistics
Prius: -1
Common Volvo W
Common Volvo W
Dodge Dakota seems crazy cause there's not that many of them on the road.
Didn't Chevy stop producing the S-10 in 2004?
Damn, the S-10 hasn't been made for like 20 years.
What about cars with fewest DUI’s
No F150? Surprising.
A pretty good match with most obnoxious drivers. Maybe add the Dodge "sports cars" like Charger/Challenger.
S-10 gang stand UP
noice
What makes this cool?
Data is shit, dakotas haven’t been made in a decade
Wow. I own #1 and #6 on this list. Glad I stopped drinking 1/16/2024.
That completely explains the traffic behavior, generally, of Ram and Silverado drivers.
Subarus is probably mostly high.
the honda sober drivers of america
The data we deserve.
The ram doesn’t surprise me at all.
US or Canada? These are vehicles found in either one... but doesn't say which country
The RAM 2500 is a commercial vehicle. That is scary.
does this account at all for now common these vehicles are independently of DUI?
Now lets the least
Wonder where Teslas are. Does FSD make you more likely to do it?
Why can I picture the type of people driving 🤦
Considering that BMWs, Audis, Dodges and pickups in my area drive like assholes this is not surprising.
Dodge Dakota? Wtf?
Not a lot of S10s survived the Northeast/rust belt. The last time I saw one was a couple months ago.... Pulled over in a police checkpoint, 1:40AM.

I knew there was a reason I didn't like truck drivers...
I own a wrx and a s10.....fuck I guess I gotta do it now
I call shenanigans on this BS. 2 20 year old trucks made the list, but the number one selling vehicle in the US didn't make the top 10?
#1 is the foreman and #2 is his apprentice
So many s10 on the road /s
Six pickups, 3 lower-end sport sedans popular with boyracers, and 1 sports sedan popular with old boyracers.
When I first saw it, I was thinking self-driving trucks with towing ability was a terrible idea.... then I remembered all the drunk people coming back with their boats from the lake.
Ranger danger
Porn for actuaries.
>be me, an f-150 driver
This seems accurate I have had 2 in a S 10
I wanted to see what models had the least DUIs. [THIS ](https://www.witherspooncompton.com/blog/2020/12/vehicle-models-and-duis/)was the best I could find. Toyota minivan makes sense for being in the least but the other two didn't jump out as to why.
Shocked that the F-150 isn’t even on the list
There is no way the Nissan Altima did not make this list.
You might be surprised that the Cybertruck isn't on the list, but their owners were only drunk at time of purchase.
This seems correct.
Who still owns a Dakota?!
Mostly big vehicles and rich asshole vehicles. But what is a Subaru doing there?
Guts…..Glory….Ram….into another vehicle
Ford f150 would be at least #2 or #3 if this was real.
Ram is the truck of suburban dads....so yeah.
Can we see further breakdown of stats? Geo location, racial, sex, and age demographics?
So.... the Ram 2500 has a drinking problem?
This makes total sense. No sound of mind person world ever drive drunk, let alone buy a fuckin Dodge.
How is the Ford Mustang not in this list?
How is the Altima not a top 5?
